Our right to cancel
We reserve the right to cancel your order if the goods ordered are unavailable or discontinued, or if one or more of the items ordered was listed at an incorrect price due to a error or an error made by us or received by us from our suppliers.
Manufactured Faults in Goods
Goods received should be inspected immediately upon receipt. Where a claim of defect or damage of manufacture is made, the goods shall be returned by the buyer to the seller, along with written details of the defect or damage. In certain circumstances our suppliers may wish to repair rather than replace products and you will be advised of this. Where a repair is not possible the buyer will be sent a replacement product, and a full refund will only be issued where the replacement cannot be made for whatever reason.
Your right to cancel
We are sure you will be delighted with your purchase but if you change your mind you may cancel your order immediately after payment and before dispatch, which will always be for the first postage available. Following such notice any goods delivered to you must (except where goods are of faulty manufacture) be returned at your own expense.
A refund of the price you paid will be made on receipt of the returned goods. The goods must be received back by us, unused and in new condition, in the original packaging by a recorded delivery service at your own expense.
The goods you return are your responsibility until received by us so we strongly recommend that you buy suitable insurance to cover the transit any valuable items, as we will not be responsible for any goods not delivered back to us.
Under no circumstances, other than in the event of faulty goods, will refunds include our shipping costs or be considered where the manufacturer’s seal has been broken, packaging opened or the packaging of any disks, Digital Versatile Disks (DVDs) or diskettes, has been opened or interfered with.
